Happy hump day everyone! To get you out of your mid-week slump, I wanted to share a video I posted which is the best kind: short and slightly self-deprecating.

I was recently tagged by Lindy aka bubzbeauty on Youtube to do the 3 Minute Makeup Challenge which is exactly as it sounds. You must do an entire makeup look, as best you can, in only 3 minutes. Applying makeup in itself can be a challenge but to do an entire look in 3 minutes is prettttttttty crazy. I'm pretty much still sweating just thinking about it, but to your benefit it brings the lols. ;)

I don't want to give away too many spoilers about the results of the video for those blog readers who can't watch the video yet, but I am *itching* to redo this (in the safety and comfort of no-camera zone) just because I know now what to do to be the most baller 3-minute makeup applier ever.

That's how you learn from life, man. Stress, then CONFIDENCE!

Readers, have you tried a timed makeup challenge before? How many minutes is your quickest makeup routine? How long does it take for you to apply false lashes? Let me know in the comments below!

sometimes when I wake up too late I apply my makeup in 5 mins but I only use liquid foundation, mascara and blush just to look 'alive' throughout the day LOL. I dont think I would do anything like you did in 3 mins... it looks great!

It got so intense watching you do the lashes!! I was like, she's not gonna make, she's not gonna make it :S but then.....that was so impressive!! It was pretty ballsy to even attempt to do false lashes but to actually succeed?!This is why you're my favourite beauty blogger <3Binita xx

Very nice! I didn't think you could do the eyelashes with such a short time. One quick (small) request: could you find another word to replace "janky" in your vocabulary? I know it's part of the whole urban dictionary, but it's actually an Indian girl's name (mine). I ask this because you're aware of other cultures. It's like someone in India using the word "sally" to mean messed up.This used to come up for me about 10 years ago and somehow that word is making a comeback! Politics aside, we live in a country with a president named Barak so I'm hoping names of other cultures can be appreciated.
